After feeling the change in his status in the eyes of Disney, Wu Yuan is indeed more eager to expand the domestic film market.

It's not that he wants to "hold China on self-respect", but he deeply feels the importance of the improvement of a country's industry influence to relevant practitioners.

Only the film market in China is getting bigger and bigger, stronger and stronger, and developing better and better.

When Chinese filmmakers are abroad, their waists can be straighter and harder!

He hopes that more Chinese filmmakers can straighten their waists in front of foreign filmmakers, be more valued, and get equal or even higher treatment!

And if you want to do this, the Chinese film industry must develop, and it must develop vigorously!

In addition to filming "Pirates of the Caribbean", Wu Yuan is also seriously thinking about thinking about Han Dong asking him to make a commercial film in China next year.

For a commercial blockbuster like "Hero", if you shoot it at this time, the pressure to return to your capital is still too great.

"Hero" is only the domestic box office, and it has not returned to its original cost at all.

After that, it was released abroad one after another, so that "Hero" returned to its original cost and made a lot of money.

"Hero" earned more than $50 million at the box office in North America alone, and without this $50 million, it would be a little difficult to keep the capital...

After "Hero", there is no Chinese film that can create such box office results in North America.

And this has nothing to do with the development of the mainland film market...

Wu Yuan wants to make a movie, but also to make a movie that can set off a frenzy of movie-watching in the Chinese market, so that more mainland audiences can enter the cinema!

So which movie is the right one to make?

During the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" in the last half month, Wu Yuan thought about this question almost every day.

Until "Pirates of the Caribbean" was successfully completed in the studio, he didn't think about it.

“Daniel！ Happy finishing! Jerry smiled and gave Wu Yuan a bouquet of flowers and opened a bottle of champagne.

Opening champagne to celebrate is one of the necessary processes for Hollywood to complete the movie!

The champagne tower, which was stacked high, was soon filled with champagne.

In a blink of an eye, "Pirates of the Caribbean" was completed after nearly five months of filming.

Holding the flowers and taking the champagne handed by Jerry, Wu Yuan looked a little dazed.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" is his longest filmed film.

Although he didn't have to worry about the pre-preparation, post-production, and editing of this film, the actual shooting also took him more than four months.

Hollywood's commercial blockbusters are indeed more time-consuming to shoot than mainland literary films, and this shooting took more time to run in than before.

The accident on the set, the seasickness of the main creative team, and the shooting of a large number of special effects shots in the studio all took a lot of time.

Fortunately, in the end, Wu Yuan successfully completed the shooting of all the shots in accordance with the requirements of the script.

Jerry is also quite satisfied with the finished film material shot by Wu Yuan.

He is not like other literary film directors, who always can't help but want to change the script and add something with a strong personal style when taking on foreign dramas.

Let's put it this way, a qualified Hollywood commercial blockbuster will not have any director's personal style at all.

"Mission Impossible" series, "Fast and Furious" series, "007" series, "Harry Potter" series, "Transformers" series and other commercial blockbusters, which series of directors has a sense of existence?

Commercial blockbusters have always been directed to serve the script, not the script to serve the director.

There is nothing metaphysical in the content of the script, and it does not output any artistic ideas, just how refreshing and how to stimulate the perception.

Wu Baige's "Wind Whisperer" pounced, isn't it because after he finished filming "Mission Impossible 2", he felt that he was good again, and the power in his hands was greater, so he began to stuff his artistic ideas in the movie.

The result is a film that is labelled as an action war movie, but is actually mediocre and boring, and explores friendship in a war movie.

Wu Yuan didn't do this, he completely followed the script given by the screenwriter team to shoot "Pirates of the Caribbean", and the whole movie was shot around the two points of fantasy and adventure, without adding any private goods to it.

Jerry wants such a director who works hard and doesn't make trouble!

The big production, which has cost a whopping $140 million, really doesn't allow for a trace of additional risk!

“Daniel！” After watching Wu Yuan drink the celebratory champagne, Jerry smiled and took out a small gift box from his arms, which was not much bigger than the ring box, and handed it to him.

"This is my personal gift to you, it is very pleasant to cooperate with you, you are different from most of the Chinese people I have seen."

Wu Yuan looked at the gift box with some doubts, for the first time I heard that the producer would give the director a gift.

"For me?" He took the gift in surprise and opened it to see that it was actually a watch.

"Patek Philippe's collection of complications with a date display and dual time zone function." Jerry shrugged and said thoughtfully, "I don't think you're in the habit of wearing a watch. ”

"But Daniel, you have to travel back and forth between the two sides of the ocean a lot, and I think a watch with dual time zone function is very practical for you."

"And as a well-known director of Hollywood, I think you should have a watch that matches your identity, right?"

For Westerners, watches are a very important thing, and it can be said that every mature man needs to have his own business watch and a commuter watch.

Jerry saw that Wu Yuan didn't usually wear a watch, so he prepared such a gift for him.

According to the gift receiving habits of Westerners, Wu Yuan took out the watch in the gift box as soon as possible and admired it in front of Jerry.

The case and crown are made of 18-carat white gold, the crystal is sapphire crystal glass, and the strap is calfskin.

Obviously, when Jerry was picking a gift, he took Wu Yuan's age into account and deliberately chose a metal strap that is more suitable for young people than the kind of metal strap that middle-aged people love.

Wu Yuan looked back and forth, "It's a very cool watch, but this watch isn't cheap, right?" ”

"As long as you like it." Jerry smiled and nodded.

Of course, it's not cheap, he ordered it directly from Patek Philippe's headquarters in Switzerland, and it costs 45,000 euros including tax!

Converted into RMB, plus the consumption tax on high-end watches, Wu Yuan would spend more than 500,000 yuan to buy such a watch in China.

This is much higher grade than any green water ghost.

Wu Yuan really needs such a watch.

Today's mobile phones are not as smart as they were later, and every time he goes back and forth between the two countries, he needs to recalibrate the date and time of the mobile phone, which is very troublesome.

With such a dual-time zone watch, it is much more convenient.

He stroked his watch lovingly, and said happily: "Thank you, Jerry, I like it very much!" ”

"From now on, this watch will be my go-to watch."

Orlando, who noticed the movement not far away, walked over with champagne, glanced at it a few times, and deliberately said a little exaggeratedly: "Oh! Jerry, why does the director have a gift and we don't. ”

"I feel like I've been treated unfairly, what about the Screen Actors Guild, I need the Screen Actors Guild to administer justice!"

"No kidding." Jerry glared at Orlando angrily: "Don't think I don't know, the watch you often wear is much more expensive than this one!" ”

"You don't need me to give you a watch."

After saying that, Jerry walked to the center of the studio and clapped a few times, attracting the attention of all the crew members who were still putting the finishing touches.

"Guys, everyone's worked hard!"

"To celebrate the completion of our film, there's a big party waiting for you tonight!"

"So, for the sake of the drinks and girls in the evening, everyone needs to move a little faster!"

Seconds later, the cheers nearly toppled the studio's roof.
